The Patch's area of the space shuttle in km² is 2.07 × 10⁻⁹ km²

Given, that a space shuttle requires a 20.7 cm² patch

We have to convert the patch's area from cm² into km².

Unit conversion is a method in which we multiply or divide with a particular numerical factor and then finally round off to the nearest significant digits.

Patch area of the space shuttle is 20.7 cm²

1 cm = 0.00001 km

or, 1 cm² = (0.00001 km)²

or, 1 cm² = 10⁻¹⁰km²

20.7 cm² = 20.7 × 10⁻¹⁰km²

20.7 cm² = 2.07 × 10⁻⁹ km²

The patch area in square kilometers is 2.07 × 10⁻⁹ km²

Propane(C3H8) combusts with oxygen gas. If you start with 15 grams of Propane, how many grams of carbon dioxide will be produced

skelet666 [1.2K]

mC₃H₈: 44 g/mol
mCO₂: 44 g/mol
---------------------

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ ----> 3CO₂ + 4H₂O
44g (44·3)g

44g C₃H₈ ------ 132g CO₂
15g C₃H₈ ------ X
X = (15×132)/44
X = 45g CO₂

Select the properly written and balanced equation for the following chemical reaction: Sodium metal and an aqueous solution of m

Setler [38]

Answer: $2Na(s)+MgI_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2NaI(aq)+Mg(s)$

Explanation: The chemical reaction is written by writing down the chemical formulas of the reactants on the left hand side and the chemical formulas of products on the right hand side separated by a right arrow.

This is a single displacement reaction in which a more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from its salt solution. Thus sodium is more reactive than Mg and thus displaces it from $MgI_2$ .

$2Na(s)+MgI_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2NaI(aq)+Mg(s)$

The number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the reaction so as to follow the law of conservation of mass. Thus the equation is balanced.
